total body water
50-70%
inversely related to body fat

most fluid is Intracellular fluid (ICF)
2 major fluid compartments
ECF and ICF

ICF(cell membrane)///ECF(interstitial fuid//capiallary wall//Plasma)
ICF and ECF separated b y
cell membranes
ECF divided into
Interstitial fluid and Plasma - they are separated by capillary wall
interstitial fluid
bathes the cells and has more volume than plasma
how is interstitial fluid related to plasma?
it is an ultrafiltrate of plasma
how does interstitial fluid differ from plasma?
Contains little if any protein b/c capillary wall is virtually impermeable to large molecules such as plasma proteins.
equivalents
number of moles multiplied by valence of solute (CaCl2 - in solution there would be 2 equivalents of Ca++ and 2 equivalents of Cl-)
osmole
# of particles into which a solute dissociates in solution. osmolarity is osmoles per liter (concentration of particles in solution)
pH
= -log10 (H+)
= log10 (1/(H+))
log(xy) =

log(x/y) =
log (x) + log (y)

log (x) - log (y)
log10 (10)^x =
x log 10 (10) = x
